Follow these steps to listen to songs on Spotify with your friends on Discord:
- While Spotify is playing, click the + icon in your text box for a “Listen Along Invite.”
- You will get a preview of your message, and you can add a comment if you like.
- Click Send Invite and your friends will be able to Join and listen to your favorite songs.
You will be able to see which of your friends are listening with you at the bottom of the screen.
Keep in mind that if the sender of the invite logs out of their Discord, or stops the music, everyone else’s music will also get interrupted.
Why Can’t I Listen to My Friend’s Spotify on Discord?
If you have clicked on the Spotify invite, and it doesn’t work, try signing out of Discord and logging in to try again. Also, keep in mind that if you are playing a game that Discord detects, the game will take precedence and Spotify will not show in your status.
For mobile phone users, keep in mind that your device cannot go to sleep, because it will end the session. The same is the case if the app loses connection with Spotify.
If you are having delays, it’s probably because your system is not in sync and the issue could be on either the listener’s or the inviter’s end.
Is Spotify Group Session Only For Premium?
No. Spotify Group Session feature is available on both free and Premium Spotify accounts, but only Spotify Premium users can invite others to a Jam session.
So, if you are planning to hold a virtual jamming session on Discord with friends, you need to have Spotify Premium.
